[IGFmaglist] IGF and World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2017

[Olusegun H. Olugbile]

Dear Lynn,

I salute you! Thank you for advancing our outreach effort during the WEF
2017. Your participation has further demonstrated your leadership
competence and commitment to promoting the ideals of IGF in such an
inclusive manner. You have done the PR well!


What you have done, albeit within the purview of WGCO roles and others as
well, we could not have done better, you have laid the ground work for us,
it is therefore incumbent on us to take it further dynamically and leverage
on your good work.


May I kindly request you share the outcome of the meeting in which you
participated with us (WGCO). This was a gathering of private sector active
players and governments, we need to immediately start the process of
consultations and engagement, bringing those active players into the IG
dialogue space, especially considering the unpredictable and the unfolding
global policy scenarios being currently triggered by the new US
administration.

It will definitely never be same again.

Best Regards.

Segun H. Olugbile
